Obama administration allows funds to dry up for Iran Human Rights group.
“If the rationale is that we are going to stop funding human rights-related work in Iran because we don’t want to provoke the government, it is absolutely the wrong message to send,’’ she (Roya Boroumand, founder of the Bormound Foundation) said. “That means that we don’t really believe in human rights, that the American government just looks into it when it is convenient.’’
Quite correct. One wonders when that "not unlimited" patience Obama was talking about regarding the Iranians actually comes into play.
Maybe after they set off that nuke they're working on.
Good links today. What the hell? Either we care or we don't. This project must be funded. There is no excuse for letting the funds dry up.
